Same Old Stuff

Hello All,

Just checked the site and read Helena’s new post, and realized how long it had been since I posted …. whoops,

So I thought I would, not too much is going on with us

I have just started babysitting one little girl usually about 3 days a week - she is a year older than Aviendha but they get along so great.  And it actually is less work having the three, Aviendha has a play-mate so she and Heidi entertain eachother and I can just strap Qhaden on in the snuggly or set him up with some toys where the girls are and I can get some stuff done ….. well I can get a few things done ….. like maybe 15 minutes … but every second counts : )

We have been settleing into our new house over the past few months and renovation plans are being pushed farther and farther back … both from lack of money and the actual effort.  Actually doing stuff makes such a mess before it gets any better, we are now realizing that fact … hmm who knew.  But the little things are happening … slowly but surely - like we got Aviendha’s room painted.  I think the summer and warmer weather will bring in some more motivation.

Hmmm Lance is loving his job, he has full time work but things slowed down for a few months and are now picking back up for all the Christmas parties.

Aviendha impresses us everyday she catches onto things so quickly and is a real little helper … and a bit of a bossy one too :) She is really into being a princess right now and loves dressing up in any kind of dress.  Which is really fitting because Lance’s mom is taking Avi and I and a few of her cousins to “Disney’s Princesses on Ice” it happens on the 24th and we are soooo excited I know Avi will love it!

Qhaden is growing leaps and bounds he is now 6 months and we went to the doctor for his check-up yesterday and he weighed 19lbs 1oz - he’s a big boy to pack around.  He had 5 teeth and is cutting two more.  He can basically sit up on his own and rolls and inch-worms all over now, the lower shelves are no longer safe.

I think that’s about it for now - and I can never figure out how to do pictures on this thing but I know most of you are on facebook so you can see them there
